I live close to the Beaverton,OR factory. I would love to find one of these older scopes. I want to build and test vacuum tube and solid state audio amplifiers among other things. The 53D/54D plugin allows looking at signals in the micro-volts.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Since you live by the Beaverton factory, the Tektronix Recycling and Material Salvage (RAMS) store would be a good place to look. It is open every first and third Thursday of each month I believe 1pm is when they open to the public only for a few hours before closing.

Great choice!  I love my Type 547!  If you're on Facebook, you may want to join the "Old Tek Scopes" group.  And if you don't already know about it, check out the TekWiki: https://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/
